特德·休斯（Ted Hughes，1930-1998），诗人、翻译家、评论家，二战后英国最重要的两位诗人之一。休斯是美国女诗人普拉斯的丈夫。他一生写了40多部作品，出版有《雨中鹰》《乌鸦》《雨中鹰及其他：诗选1957-1994》《生日信》等诗集，《诗的锻造：休斯写作教学手册》《冬日花粉：休斯文集》《神的舞者：致T.S艾略特》《莎士比亚与完整存在之女神》等文集。从1984年直至去世，休斯一直是英国的桂冠诗人。休斯早期的诗多以自然之美和自然中的暴力为主题，后期的诗在强悍之中注入一股沉郁顿挫之气，突出了诗人对生命的觉醒和顿悟。2011年，休斯纪念碑被安置于英国西敏寺的“诗人角”，与长眠于此的乔叟、莎士比亚、雪莱、拜伦、艾略特等人为伍。
